What is psychotherapy?

Psychotherapy is also called “talking therapy”. It is a way of solving personal problems by talking with someone who is a trained and skilled listener. Psychotherapy is designed to work with emotional problems and often explores early life experiences.

Anxiety

Emotional issues and problems

Lack of self confidence

Emotional trauma

Anger management

Phobias

Health issues

What happens during a psychotherapy session?

The psychotherapy session revolves around talking and is designed to enable you to understand you. This way you can work out the best solution for you. Each session is approximately 50 to 60 minutes.

Are there any after effects?

The main effect is that you develop a greater understanding of yourself which is very empowering. Sometimes the process of learning about yourself can be emotional and you may experience, for example, feeling tearful. This is emotional release.

How many sessions will I need?

This will depend on the problem or issue you want to work on. This is discussed at the first session.
